Helipilot1982, were you the first one through the IR course at Fast? Did they give you a 'discount' for being the first guinea pig?
I suppose they have to get good results over a period of time to be taken seriously, although I don't doubt the skills of some of their instructors. Personally i'd be wary of parting with approx 30k with someone new to the IR training industry.
Well done on the pass by the way.
